166 research skills maintained by K-Dense (formerly Claude Scientific Skills), spanning bioinformatics, cheminformatics, clinical research, materials and physics, including unified access to 78 public databases such as PubChem and UniProt. Works with Claude Code, Codex and Cursor.

Quant trading plugin from the wshobson/agents marketplace: quant analyst and risk manager subagents plus backtesting and risk metrics skills for strategy backtests, portfolio optimization and risk measures like VaR, Sharpe ratio and max drawdown. Needs local Python; not investment advice.

Trading research agent from HKU's HKUDS whose MCP server offers 70+ tools for quotes, financials, backtesting and research across A-shares, Hong Kong and US stocks and crypto. Needs local Python; HK, US and crypto research need no API key. For research only; not investment advice.

Creates, edits and validates reproducible Python and SQL Jupyter notebooks: organizes cells as reports or tutorials, checks conclusions against actual output and reruns top to bottom before handoff. Maintained by OpenAI in the Data Analytics plugin of openai/plugins.

OpenAI's official Codex plugin that guides sequencing analysis from BCL/FASTQ: QC, RNA-seq differential expression, single-cell, variant calling and metagenomics, favoring nf-core and other public pipelines with reproducible run logs. Checks for local tools first. Research use only.

550+ medical research skills from AIPOCH: PubMed search strategy, study design and sample size, statistics and bioinformatics, journal writing and reviewer responses, all vetted by MedSkillAudit. Some need Python/R or database credentials; have researchers and clinicians review results.

MathWorks' official server that lets agents start your local MATLAB, write and run scripts and unit tests, and check code style and potential errors, for computing, simulation and data analysis. Needs a licensed MATLAB R2021a+ and the downloaded server binary.

Self-hosted engine that maps lab results, checkup reports and wearable data to standard metrics so agents can chart trends, citing the source file for every number. uvx mirobody mcp gives the coding tools; full records need Docker and an LLM API key. A doctor should review results.

Connects agents to live Jupyter notebooks: read, write, insert and execute cells and read multimodal outputs like charts, for interactive data analysis. Bring your own JupyterLab or JupyterHub; open source, maintained by Datalayer.

MathWorks' official toolkit: set up the MCP server via the MATLAB installer so agents can run code, run tests and do static checks; domain skill sets for signal processing, controls, statistics and machine learning install as Claude Code plugins. Needs MATLAB R2021a+.

Graph database MCP server from Neo4j Labs: reads the graph schema and runs read and write Cypher queries, with read-only mode, query timeouts and response token limits. Needs a Neo4j instance with the APOC plugin enabled.

Official FinLab quant skill: lets agents use FinLab data (mainly Taiwan stocks, plus US, Japan, Korea and Hong Kong) to write stock-picking strategies, run backtests and analyze factors. Needs a FinLab account (free tier has a daily data cap), Python 3.10+ and uv. Not investment advice.

59 clinical research skills from a radiologist at Korea's Asan Medical Center: study design and sample size, de-identification, statistical figures, 49 reporting guidelines, risk-of-bias checks, citation verification and reviewer replies. Literature APIs need no key. Medical review required.
